Hashtags stripped from Instagram PESOS via OwnYourGram

While trying to do this:

Use hashtags within the description of a post to Instagram and have it returned to my site by OwnYourGram

I encountered this error:

Any word preceded by a # is deleted from the description and turned into a Known tag. Compare, for example, https://stream.jeremycherfas.net/2019/pay-no-attention-im-actually-testing-my-photos-to-try on my Known site with the original on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BtGrqFdH3ZI/

Some other notes:

Give us some context:

I like that Known tries to turn hashtags into tags, but I would much prefer it to simply leave them in the description of the photo.

• It'd also be really handy if you could tell us the contents of your version.known file

version = "0.9.9-a"
build = 2018120201

• What database are you using? (e.g. mongo, mysql, postgres)

Mysql

• Any warnings or errors in your admin/diagnostics page?
• If this is a programming bug, can you include examples of any Micropub / API calls / webhook pings you make? Otherwise please don't worry about what this means!
• Bonus points - are you able to illustrate the issue with a unit test? If so, submit it as a pull request!

@jeremycherfas I am digging into this as well, does it only happen to you when multiple hashtags are used?

Truth is, I stopped using hashtags in Instagram. They've become another useless marketing tool and it was easier to live without them than to have my site capriciously messed up.
